The historic, 34-story 400 West Market Street facility is in the heart of Louisville’s Central Business District. The location provides Old National clients with street and garage parking along with two ATMs onsite — and one that is open 24 hours a day.

The new banking center will be located on the first floor of the 400 West Market Street location in a space previously occupied by Stock Yards Bank & Trust.

Old National Bank's downtown facility has been closed since the mass shooting on April 10. A 25-year-old employee, armed with an AR-15 he had purchased just days earlier, opened fire on his coworkers in the bank, killing five and wounding eight others, including rookie LMPD officer Nick Wilt.

Wilt was critically injured while responding to the shooting, where he took a shot to the head. He's recovering well in rehab, and over $167,000 has been raised by the Louisville Metro Police Foundation in Wilt's honor.
